I have the same problem as other users of having random audio ads running in background of my web browser. I tried running the Kaspersky TDSSKILLER application as reommended, but it didn't find any threats. Any advice as to what to try next?

I've now tried malwarebytes and adwcleaner and still have the problem

Didn't have CCleaner, but may have stumbled on the answer. I removed the AOL toolbar and so far all is quiet. I'll see how it goes.
